Tour of Umbria: unique itineraries that start from Lake Trasimeno
Have fun out in nature, enjoy cultural tours, ceramics workshops, Made in Italy tailoring and traditional Umbrian cuisine.
Plan an exciting trip to Umbria: book your stay at Lake Trasimeno and use it as a base to tour the region, exploring unique landscapes— From Monte Cucco Park (paragliding!) to the gently sloping hills of Trasimeno; from the stunning Orvieto Cathedral to medieval Perugia; and from hiking to the majestic Marmore waterfall to walking trails around Lake Trasimeno. In southern Umbria, along the Nera River—where the lush green woods gleam in the sunlight— you can even treat yourself to a rafting adventure!
Something you shouldn’t miss is a ceramics workshop in Deruta or a delicious, immersive experience at the Casa del Cioccolato Perugina—a must-visit stop during your tour of Umbria. Perugia is also the birthplace of Luisa Spagnoli, a global icon of high fashion and "Made in Italy" excellence.
When you’re in Città di Castello, you’ll visit the textile collection at Palazzo Tomassini, a testament to the tradition of weaving —one that enabled many women to finally gain independence and benefit from Italy's first in-house childcare center.
Vacations rejuvenate not only the body but, just as important, also the spirit. You are in Umbria, where holiness is within easy reach: visit the Basilica of Saint Benedict in Norcia, the Sanctuary of Saint Rita in Cascia, and the Basilica of Saint Francis in Assisi.
Walk over the hills and through the woods of Umbria and the Trasimeno area, breathe in the scents of the blooming fields at Castelluccio near Norcia, and admire the fields of golden wheat and sunflowers that frame Gubbio. A tour of Umbria is also a journey of flavours, best discovered through traditional local dishes: crescia in Gubbio, panpepato in Terni, truffles and cured pork meats in Norcia, saffron from Città della Pieve, fagiolina beans from Trasimeno, handmade pasta, fresh fish, and fine wines from Umbrian wineries.
Savour your holiday in Umbria.
